World Menopause Day, held each year on 18 October, is an opportunity to raise awareness, challenge stigma and improve the health and wellbeing of women experiencing menopause.

It is a day to raise awareness, encourage informed conversations and improve the experience of women around the world. And while medical advances and growing public awareness have improved the conversation around menopause, we still have significant gaps in research and education.

‘Australian women spend approximately 14% of their lives—around 12 years—in ill health, while important evidence gaps remain in women’s health, including menopause. As an advocate for women’s health, I will continue working with local and state governments to champion research, investment and practical interventions that improve women’s health at every stage of life. Join me in calling for women’s health to be heard, researched and prioritised.’ — Cr Barbara Ward, President, Nutrition NSW

Join us this World Menopause Day as we highlight the challenges women face through the menopause transition—and calling for stronger research, better education and accessible, evidence-based support.

Children’s experiences with food begin early, and the words we use about eating, bodies and health can have a lasting influence.

Giving children and young people the freedom to discover food with curiosity and enjoyment—without pressure, judgement or shame—can help them develop confidence and a positive relationship with food that lasts.

Through small everyday moments- sharing meals, learning where food comes from, trying new flavours, cooking together or talking positively about food - we help shape the way children connect with food for life.

This National Nutrition Week, we’re celebrating positive food messages and experiences to help every child feel safe, supported and confident around food.

🧡A healthier, fairer food system starts in our kitchens.

This National Nutrition Week, Nutrition NSW is highlighting simple ways we can reduce waste, choose more sustainably and help nourishing food go further.

📍Choose local where you can. It can mean fewer food miles, lower emissions and fresher flavours. Explore local markets, gardens or food co-ops, and check the country-of-origin information on food labels.
🌿Grow your own. Start small with herbs or cherry tomatoes in a pot.
🍅Choose less packaging where possible. Avoiding unnecessary plastic helps reduce the more than 3 million tonnes of plastic waste generated in Australia each year.
🥗Make food go further. One-third of Australia’s food goes to waste, but planning meals, storing food well and loving your leftovers can make a meaningful difference.

“At a time when 53% of Australians reported in April 2026 that it had become harder to put food on the table, reducing waste is not only good for the planet—it can also help nourishing food go further. Nutrition NSW is working with local communities, councils and the NSW Government to support practical, evidence-based solutions that strengthen food security and build a more sustainable food system.” Cr Barbara Ward, President, Nutrition NSW

💜Every child and family deserves reliable access to affordable, nourishing food.

This National Nutrition Week, we’re recognising the vital role early years settings, schools and community organisations play in helping children, families and communities access nourishing food.

“Since 1985, Nutrition NSW has worked alongside local communities, schools and families to make practical, evidence-based nutrition support more accessible. Through education, cooking programs, tailored resources and community partnerships, we’re helping more people build the knowledge and confidence to make nourishing food choices.” Cr Barbara Ward, President, Nutrition NSW

Let’s continue working together to build a food system that is fairer, more nourishing and more connected for everyone.

⭐Today, Nutrition NSW welcomed 250 guests to our Annual Business Breakfast in celebration of National Nutrition Week, with valued bipartisan support.

The event brought together leaders from across government, health, research and industry to shine a light on the challenges and opportunities within Australia’s food landscape — from supporting positive relationships with food and reducing food waste to strengthening mental wellbeing and improving equitable access to nutritious food.

Our expert panel shared insights into progress in nutrition policy, product development and advocacy, while highlighting the important role of government leadership and cross-sector collaboration in improving health and nutrition outcomes across NSW and Australia.

💜Thank you to our speakers, sponsors, supporters and guests who joined us for this important conversation. Together, we can help build a healthier, more equitable food future.

October is Mental Health Month. Mental Health Month is a great opportunity to celebrate the foods that can help support our mental wellbeing.

Research suggests that eating a varied, nutritious diet can support the beneficial bacteria in your gut and promote a healthier microbiome. Aim to enjoy a wide range of fresh, minimally processed foods, particularly plant-based options such as fruit, vegetables, legumes, beans, nuts and wholegrains.

Here’s our top tips for nourishing your gut, brain and overall wellbeing:

⏰ Eat regularly: Balanced meals and snacks can help maintain steady energy levels and support concentration and mood throughout the day.
🥗 Choose a variety of plant foods: Fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and wholegrains provide fibre and nutrients that support gut and brain health.
🍣 Include omega-3 fats: Foods such as oily fish, walnuts, chia seeds and flaxseeds provide healthy fats that play an important role in brain function.
🫗 Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water can support alertness and concentration, while dehydration may leave you feeling tired or sluggish.
⚖ Keep it balanced: Enjoy highly processed foods and sugary drinks less often, while focusing on nourishing foods that support your overall wellbeing.

The protein gap: Understanding the importance of protein during menopause

A new analysis from CSIRO highlights the importance of dietary protein for women aged 40–55, particularly during the menopausal transition. The findings suggest that eating less is not always the answer to midlife weight gain, and that choosing protein-rich foods may help support appetite management, muscle mass, strength and overall physical health. Nutrition needs vary from person to person. Nutrition NSW encourages women navigating menopause to seek practical, evidence-based advice from an Accredited Practising Dietitian to understand their individual protein needs and make sustainable food choices.

“Women’s health and wellbeing deserve greater attention and continued investment in high-quality research. Evidence like this helps build understanding of women’s nutritional needs across different life stages and supports more informed, practical health choices,” Cr Barbara Ward, Nutrition NSW President.
